Bottle, shared by bergstaden. An almost black one topped by a dense, finger-thick beige head. The aroma is sugary sweetish, with coffee and dark chocolate, mocha, dark dried fruits and some alcohol. It’s full-bodied and lightly warming on the palate, with a soft carbonation. Dark chocolate, mocha and some dark dried fruits in the flavor. Dark sugar and a little bitterness. Lasting roasted finish with chocolate and some coffee. 151010

Bottle. Dark brown with a tan head. Aroma of lamingtons - rather measly chocolate, desiccated coconut - and plunger coffee. And then going back for a does it smell like chile? whiff, yes it does. Fairly light bodied, lowish carbonation. Not very sweet, but otherwise tastes very like a lamington with a bit of chile and a decent whack of bitterness at the end. Very clever and lots of fun.

Draught at Tippler’s Tap, Brisbane on 6th September 2015. Black with pale tan head and spot lacing. Coarse pickly aroma with Jalapeño pepper/corned beef/smoke seeming to disagree in the nose. Rough old coffee and sourness in-mouth with soy sauce notes. Aniseed, coffee and sharp black pepper in the finish. Light-bodied for its strength. Failed to live up to expectation at this time, happy to uprate should I have a fresh opportunity.

From a 330ml bottle on 16/8/2015 (shared by Butz with thanks). Pours a very dark brown with a biggish head.The nose is pleasant and chocolatey. Take a sip and there’s more chocolate, coconut, vanilla and a touch of coffee. The chilli is quite pronounced, giving it warmth and a bit of a kick. the texture borders on creamy and the carbonation is average. I’m not totally sold on chilli beers but this one is quite distinctive and well done. As others have noted, it really does have a bit of Lamington about it.
